Sorry for the late post but I did not have the confidence to post it until I got cofirmation from an experienced birder. Kelly Shipe took photos and sent one to Brandon Percival who consulted with birders from Cornell; it was an immature Arctic Tern !!! We (myself, Jeannie Mitchell and Kelly Shipe) saw it in the south-east area of the lake, on a sandbar with Ring-billed Gulls and Pelicans. I had spotted a tern which we could not see very well. We had to cross on a makeshifr bridge (careful, it not too steady) and we refound it right on the shore of the sandbar. I hope it is still there.
